Parameters

arg - floating point value

Return value

nearest integer not less than arg

Notes

The integer value can be always represented by the given floating point type.

Example

#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    double a = 12.0;
    std::cout << std::fixed;
    std::cout << std::ceil(12.0) << std::endl;
    std::cout << std::ceil(12.1) << std::endl;
    std::cout << std::ceil(12.5) << std::endl;
    std::cout << std::ceil(12.9) << std::endl;
    std::cout << std::ceil(13.0) << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

Output:

​12.000000
13.000000
13.000000
13.000000
